Would like to of seen rex ryan as a d-cordinator to replace manusky, its not gonna happen. Reports are the jets will keep him. On a side note, looks like penn states bill o'brien will be the texans new coach! Frazier likely out in Minnesota. For some ungodly reason Garrett looks safe in dallas just cuz jerry jones is the dumbest most arrogant worst Owner+Gm in the nfl....he is content being a .500 team year after year(136-136 since 97').

Greg Manusky isn't the problem. It's our players taking games off.

If we learned how to play defense like we did vs the Chiefs, Broncos, & 49ers every week then we'd be fine.

Hopefully this is just signs of us being a young team. But the mentality Chuck Pagano brought here is really starting to sink in around here.

Also, props again to Pep Hamilton who called his best game all year last Sunday

As I see this from 2000 miles away,  we just don't have the type of talent to bring our "A" game for all 16 weeks.   Notice we pretty much do against most of our best opponents...   but there's not enough talent to succeed and survive against our lesser opponents...  and that's mostly where we failed...

 

We need a much better defense and a much deeper roster to get more consistent play week after week after week...

 

And that's easier said than done....

 Its like you totally missed the changes in defensive personnel and minutes played that has occured the last 2 weeks.

The improvement is real and exciting, but a look back

 

 

Houston HAD lost 11 in a row, enough said.

KC 2 had lost 2 in a row at HOME now 3. We matched up well and everybody did their job. Our leading tackler had FIVE. Amazing!

JMO, but that was the our best 60 minutes of Team D against a good Offense in Years!

 

SF had been destroyed by Seattle in the game before us and Kaep threw terrible to his 1 available vet WR. They killed us with the run in the first half and Harbaugh crazily quit running

 

Denver was missing their all-world LT and Mathis`s Big Hit early hurt Manning FOR AWHILE. Maybe a fumble on our goal line hurt them? They also had 2 fumbles by their KR. And several weird 15 yard penalties. How many points did they have? 33 wasn`t it.

 

Not an effort issue. Personnel, just like the O-Line. IMO

      Ballard does have thick skin.  You just choose to not to see it that way.      Ballard is the face and voice of the franchise.  Irsay’s health does not make him an effective public face of the franchise.  Frank was OK, Steichen less so.   So Ballard does the lion share of teams PR.    And Ballard has always said he’d rather the fans be angry than be apathetic.  Shows they care.  Of course, you know this but choose not to acknowledge it because it undercuts your distorted view of CB.   I don’t know what CBs relationship is with Kevin Bowen who I like.   So let’s say it’s complicated.   But on balance I think Ballard has a good relationship with the local media.  I’d be surprised if he didn’t.  He is loved by national media.  He’s got a personality and a sense of humor.  I’m sorry you don’t care for it.    Of course you have yet to acknowledge that you and Moose literally said that Ballard didn’t know enough about Mitchell to know if he was a good guy.   For a man in your profession, THAT is a whopper.  Why you thought that is a mystery?   By the way, hope you notice that at least twice I’ve now said you’re smarter than you show.  There’s a compliment in there somewhere if you let yourself see it.    But I think you’ve painted yourself into a corner.  You come across as someone who’d rather be right about Ballard being bad even if it means the Colts do poorly than be wrong and have the Colts do well.    The reason Irsay hasn’t fired Ballard for the teams record is because Irsay approved of what CB was doing in real time.   Believe what you want but Irsay has done the GM job himself so he knows how it goes.  And he has chosen to keep Ballard.  Unless you don’t like Irsay too, you might want to consider that.  Life is more fun being optimistic than negative.     Sorry this went so long.

      I think it’s backwards.  MPJ is definitely Reggie based on skill set and tendencies.  AD can become Marvin with his explosiveness.   Raimann - I think he’ll be Castonzo.  Ol reliable, underappreciated, majority won’t realize how good he was until he’s gone.   AD - if he becomes what we think he can, Ocho Cinco.  Cocky, competitive, but will perform his butt off and will dance every chance he gets lol   Jelani Woods - Jimmy Graham, fast for his size, walking mismatch.

      speaking of which, I’m about to win some good money.  I bet that brown would be FMVP, the Celtics would win the series, and it last at least 4 games.

      Colts Select Laiatu Latu Edge UCLA

      By smittywerb · Posted

      more reason to believe that after the top 3 wide receivers, Latu was their guy.  To not accept an offer to move back ONLY 4 spots and gain a top 100 pick is hard to do.  Bet if the rams through in a second instead of a third we might’ve took it.   think about it, if you move back 4 spots you’d still have a shot at one of the two top corners or even Dallas turner.  And we said no thanks, we want Latu.
